The first day of research project we got to learn what this topic is about and what were expecting during next two terms. We also had to choose about 5 topics that we are interested into, and then number them 1 to 5, (1 = Least) (5 = Most Interested), I have chosen to do Djing. My question will be the equipment and programs they use.

The teacher has given us work sheets on to help us to do our proposal by giving us and example of someone elses work. I have started doing my proposal of my topic today, I have continued on narrowing down my topic on Djing and i have chosen to do the Equipment and Programs they use. The teacher showed us a video, were a woman is talking about the research project ethics. The teacher is now explaining about plagerism and biblography so we understand if we plagerise we could fail our subject.
